A= 8 B=4 C=3
Explanation:
a b c = 100 a + 10 b + c
a = 2 c
reversed c b a = 100 c + 10 b + a
100 a + 10 b + c - 100 c - 10 b - a = 396
99 a - 99 c = 396
but a = 2 c so
198 c - 99 c = 396
99 c = 396
c = 4
then a = 8
so
8 b 4
what if b is 1 ?
is 814 - 418 = 396 ????
yes
what if b is 3?
is 834 - 438 = 396 ???
yes
